Odds are that this will not be the crown jewel of the Golden Eagles’ non-conference schedule for men’s basketball.

Yes, it involves Marquette men’s basketball, that’s why we’re here. According to Rothstein, Marquette will host New Hampshire as a non-conference opponent in the 2026-27 season. No word on a date on that one, but it’s pretty safe to guess that it will be somewhere in November or December.

The first one was a 58-53 Marquette win in November of 2013, the second was a 75-70 Marquette win in November 2021.
I am begging here: Please beat New Hampshire by at least six points this time. The 2013 win had MU leading by as many as 14 in the second half before the Wildcats slowly cut into it and got within four with under a minute to go. The 2021 win was the second game ever under the direction of Shaka Smart, and the Golden Eagles never led by more than nine points in that game.
